Magic at Warriors picks and predictions
Prediction
Warriors 113, Magic 104
Moneyline
PASS.
The Warriors will win this game with no problems as F Paolo Banchero is still out for Orlando, but Golden State is not worth the risk of betting on as a -220 favorite. PASS and bet on the spread and/or total instead.
Against the spread
BET WARRIORS -5.5 (-110).
With Paolo out, this is a much easier matchup for the Warriors. F Draymond Green will shut down Magic F Franz Wagner, but there is no one on the Magic who can guard Curry or even Yaxel. In the half court, the Magic will likely struggle to get much going as they turn the ball over a lot and struggle to hit threes. They won't make it very diffcult for the Warriors to cover here.
Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 222.5 (-110).
Orlando's offense has been horrible; the Magic have been held under 100 points in 4 games already this season, and they have an offensive rating of just 107.4, good for 23rd in the NBA. For the Warriors, this win streak has been led mostly by Curry and Yaxel, but the rest of the team still has some stepping up to do. Don't expect for the Warriors to look unstoppable offensively.
The Under has hit in all of Orlando's last 3 games overall, while also hitting in Golden State's last outing. The Under is also 3-1 in the last 4 matchups between these squads that took place in Golden State.
This is a lean because it's very possible that Curry and Yaxel go off enough to push this game to hit the Over.
Best prop bet
Warriors G STEPHEN CURRY OVER 26.5 POINTS (-115).
Curry hasn't scored fewer than 27 points in any of his last 5 games overall, and he has scored at least 27 points in 8 of his last 10 matchups against the Magic. In fact, in his most recent 2 matchups against Orlando, Curry has scored 56 and 34 points, respectively. For this matchup, the Magic are missing their best defensive guard, Jalen Suggs, making it even more likely that Curry goes crazy here.
